Reviews of this property

My two girls and I had a great time in Edinburgh again. Eric made us feel welcome and very much at ease. He was so helpful whenever we needed his help or advice. His breakfast and coffee(!) were excellent. I hope to be back again for the festival next year.Thanks again.

The Rainbow Hermitage is a wonderful place to stay in Edinburgh. Eric and Alessandro are the perfect hosts! The breakfast is freshly cooked and the range of choices is just stunning. Eric and Alessandro are very helpful in every possible way but also very respectful regarding the privacy of their guests! The rooms are very nice and clean. Perfect stay, perfect flat, perfect hosts! Thank you for making our stay so memorable.

If you are lucky enough to have the opportunity to book here, do it! It's just a special place. The bed was great which is something I really appreciate. The hope is marvelously decorated and the cleanliness is impeccable. Location is just a short walk to Lieth, which we loved.

Before our small travel party went over to Edinburgh we got an excelent description how to reach the apartment. Our hosts were very likable. The apartments are cozy. And the service was pretty much excellent. We enjoyed our stay very much.

We stayed 3 Nights by Eric and it was fantastic. Friendly welcome, clean rooms and a perfect Breakfast for a good start in the day. Car parking in front of the house for free and bus stop just a few steps away. Every time again and thank you.

Nice and kind house holders, very pleasant to every request. The room was very good looking, and the best was one of the best I ve ever slept. The breakfast was delicious and massive. I d definitely sugggest this place.

My friends and I had a real pleasant stay and felt very welcome. The rooms were clean and tastefully furnished and the breakfast was gorgeous! There's nothing more to say, it was simply great! Thank you!

We stayed 4 nights at this B&B. There are 2 separate rooms and one bathroom we shared together. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, the bathroon modern. The breakfast Eric prepared fresh every morning was really excellent, a real Scottish breakfast, and for me I enjoyed the haggis! Eric and Alessandro are very friendly and helpful. They gave us a lot of support.
The City of Edinburgh is easy to reach by bus route 25. In the night the 25N doesn't run there so it might be the best to choose bus 22N.
So we three enjoyed the stay at Rainbow B&B very much, it is really an excellent accomodation with very friendly hosts and again an excellent breakfast." Bravo Zulu" as in the navy is said. We are absolute sure to book the same accomodation again during our next Edinburgh trip.
